This book contains these articles:
1) 1-1 CAV in FTX "Sabre" and "Comanche Ramp"
The 1st Squadron, 1st US Cavalry Regiment "Black Hawk", based in Germany, conducted two exercises in early 2002. Since the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact there are no longer many opportunities for NATO troops to conduct large exercises in open civilian areas in Germany. However, that all changed with these two U.S. exercises, where this Cavalry Squadron was able to indulge in a tactical road march, and conduct combat in forested and 'urban' areas in a former U.S. base. There are numerous photos of Abrams M1A1HAs and Bradleys in action.
2) Sweden's Armor Might in "Operation Vareld 2003"
In March of 2003, the Swedish Army conducted its largest exercise of the year in central Sweden. Two mechanized battalion-sized battle groups were put through their paces in a combination of forested and urban terrain, incorporating such tactical movements as a breakthrough, flanking movements and seizing a village. The article feature generous numbers of photos of Swedish vehicles such as Stridsvagn 122 main battle tanks, CV 9040A armored infantry fighting vehicles, CV 90s and Brobandvagn scissors bridge-layers.
